Good news for the Broncos and my sanity. The quarterback situation appears to be drawing closer and closer before the NFL Draft. Brian Hoyer and Colin Kaepernick seems to be the only veteran options on the market, the Denver Broncos will sign.
The Broncos and 49ers have had no dialogue the past weeks leading to speculation Kaepernick will not come the Mile High City. According to Adam Schefter, the 49ers and Kaepernick appear headed for a divorce.
“I had people calling me yesterday that the Browns and Eagles would get the deal done. Of course, the deal came together and got done. The same people that were telling me that, three of them, told me that San Francisco and Kapernick are going to have to end in a divorce. Most people believe that is a difficult relationship to have to continue. They’re going to have to move him and if they have to move him, there is only one logical landing spot,” Schefter said while on 104.3 The Fan’s Sandy and Stokley.
My head is spinning more and more by the day. Kaepernick could end up in Denver if Hoyer does not sign a contract during his visit in Colorado. After all the tumultuous issues 49ers and Kaepernick have dealt with, it seems inevitable a divorce will happen. Schefter did not quantify whether by trade or release. For the Broncos to acquire Kaepernick by trade or signing, they must display the same patience throughout the offseason.
Jason La Canfora, lines up with Schefter who expects the trade talks will intensify next week one the eve of or during the draft..
“Literally nothing at all has occurred to in any way repair this broken marriage, and I wouldn’t anticipate much movement on the trade front until the eve of the draft, or during the draft itself,” La Canfora wrote.
Trent Baalke today in the media did not rule out a trade either for Kaepernick, further stating to the public their relationship is not well.
Baalke said he has spoken to Kaepernick via phone since Kaepernick's trade request but not face-to-face at the OTAs...

Baalke said nothing's changed on the Kaepernick situation but said of course he can't predict the future...

A new number seven will be a Denver Bronco. Kaepernick or Hoyer will not wear number seven in his time in Colorado, but both options will give the team a successful season.
Again, All of this Kaepernick to Denver talk could end if Broncos sign Hoyer by tomorrow morning or afternoon.
